Why Have You Left Us So Soon?

 
Why have you left us so soon? 
Whose wise counsel shall I seek when it is time to bring my beloved for your blessing? 
Whose sweet smile will pierce the soul of my children, to send them on the straight path? 
Who will I turn to for the pure answer to the unknowable question? 
Who will I look to for strength when I have none?
Who will be there to show the mothers to have endless love for the children?
Who will hold the Rabbi in his moment of loneliness? 
What righteous person will stand in your stead to hold firm the Almighty's world?
Zlata, why have you left us so soon?
 
Yitzchak/Yale Rodman in loving memory and eternal gratitude
